A request for our President and Vice-President

With everything that's gone on the past 6 years, my list of what I'd LIKE to see from Bush and Cheney could be enormous. But I'm going to ask 3 very simple things.

1 - President Bush, if he has any spare time - before he goes to his ranch in Texas to clear brush or anywhere else for leisure - should spend it at Walter Reed first, and then all of the rest of the Veteran's after-care facilities. Those folks don't get leisure activity. He should continue to camp out in those facilities until he, Congress, and the American public - and especially the soldiers - are satisfied that the soldiers are receiving the utmost of care and the best facilities for that care.

2 - Vice President Cheney agreed to give his profits from Haliburton to charity. Billions were lost or wasted by Haliburton in no-bid contracts for Iraq cleanup, and Katrina cleanup. Now Haliburton is planning on moving to Dubai.

FIRST: Do what any politician would do when their district (or country) is about to lose a major employer. Convince them to stay based in the U.S. (unless they're afraid of investigation).
SECOND; take all of those profits from Haliburton; make them transparent as to where they are going; and GIVE THEM ALL TO VETERAN'S AFTER-CARE PROGRAMS. And join Bush on his trips to the VA hospitals in your leisure time, instead of going hunting for caged quail and old lawyers.

3 - Bush AND Cheney. Don't ask any young man or woman to do what you yourself would not do, nor would you ask your children to do. Lead into battle, if you're going to declare it.

That's all. I hope I haven't asked too much. But you (the administration) have asked much more than that of our young men and women overseas. It's time to return the favor.
